Subject: Home network, wingate, linux as proxy, etc.
Date: Fri, 10 Sep 1999 20:12:48 GMT
Hello,
I am interested in setting up a home network.
Currently, I have a single Windows NT machine,
connected to a cable modem. I am looking at
expanding things, so that I will have a second
NT workstation, an NT laptop (which will come
and go), and eventually a linux system.
I have been looking at using WinGate to access the
cable modem from anywhere on the local net. I am
wondering if linux (and other Unixes, Macs, for that matter),
will work as clients to the wingate server, which will
be one of the NT systems. The WinGate home page doesn't
seem to indicate much support for varied client os support,
but I am wondering whether it will work anyway.
I am looking at WinGate since it has been highly recommended,
and it seems easy to install and use, and it has firewall
capabilities.
Naturally, I am also interested in knowing what linux has to
offer in terms as acting as my proxy server and fire-wall.
I'm not too educated on linux to date, but I do have extensive
experience with other flavors of unix.
Thanks for any info,
Jason

You want to look at the username map parameter in smb.conf. Go quickly to
the man page.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but I thought that if you didn't use smbpasswd and/or
security = server, that samba used the native password on the samba server.
BTW, you might want to get a copy of John Blair's SAMBA book. Well worth
the money for the configuration coverage alone.

Thanks, but no. Already tried it, no difference. Just did another quick

Hey Proftpd Users,
I am running Proftpd, I have set it up in the past so that
all users in a certain group cannot leave the directory
\home\ftp , they cannot cwd any higher than that.
However I just reinstalled it, and I cant remember how I

Better get 'em while you can. Intel bought the part of Digital that makes
the Tulip, and it competes with their i82559. Do not be surprised when
the Tulip goes out of production, or, worse, gets sold to some lowball
Chinese schlock house that can't fabricate them reliably.

Assuming that you have compiled your kernel with
CONFIG_IP_ALIAS=y, you need to use eth0:#, where # is the number of the
aliased interface: i.e. eth0:2.
Give that a try.

It should be in /etc and the package owner should be wu-ftpd. If it's

That's funny, I haven't been able to get Java to work on ANY version of
Netscape (Linux) above 4.05
(which I'm currently running). Same for my friend at work and for our RH 6.0

The LinkSYS 10/100 PCI card I have uses the tulip driver. Put this info
in your /etc/conf.modules:
alias eth0 tulip

to properly get smbmount on a redhat 6.0 system
cd to packaging/RedHat inside the samba source tree
and (read README)...
To produce the RPMS simply type:
sh makerpms.sh
Im confused us1.samba.org and s2.samba.org show samba.2.0.5a as current
where are you getting the 2.0.5b from??

And why WOULD you expext your machine pass packets from one port to the
other unless you (somehow) tell it to?
I recently had reason to want my notebook (192.168.0.254) to talk to the
rest of my home LAN (172.16.0.0 -- yeah, I know, giving myself a Class B is
rather ambitious if not downright silly), mostly because when it's at work,
it's in the 192 space and I got really tired of reconfiguring it twice a
day.
So I put a second virtual interface on one Linux box, which has only ONE
physical adapter, and configured IP forwarding between the 192 and 172
number spaces. Worked like a charm; the notebook can see Windoze Network
Neighborhood through the Linux box, and that's two fewer reboots a day. :-)
But the point is NOTHING happened until I added IP forwarding to the mix.
Something has to tell Linux to move packets between those interfaces!
I'll try to provide more details on my IP Masq page sometime this weekend -

Subject: Unwanted Print Banner - Samba
Date: Fri, 10 Sep 1999 20:55:27 -0400
I have Samba running and can print to TCP/IP printers through Samba.
Unfortunately I get a banner page after each print job. I don't get
banner pages when I print to the same printer from within Linux (Red Hat
6).
Does anybody know how to stop the printing of banner pages?

Subject: Can't do "host casper" even ON casper
Date: Fri, 10 Sep 1999 19:16:16 -03-59
I'm typing this from "casper". If I type "host casper" I get,
"Host not found, try again." I have "order hosts,bind" in
/etc/host.conf, and casper is in /etc/hosts, I can even telnet
back in by name.
Is this working as it should be? Any pointers, if it's broken?
I would have expected casper to be resolved to my local net
address.
There's a side aspect to this. I'm trying to set up mail
hubbing on my network, with the mailhub on the masq machine.
I set up the clients with the masq machine as their smart
host, but nobody ever sends the mail on. I suspect these
problems are linked... I'm also running a caching-only
nameserver, so there are no mx records hanging on around
on my local net. At the moment, I'd rather not spend the
time digging further into BIND, maybe later. Oh, I'm running
Exim.
I currently have clients pointed at the masq machine, but
I'd like hubbing to work, at least partly so my cron mail
comes to a regular mailbox.
Any suggestions welcome...
